My argument is to present the facts of an objectively-measurable geographical aggression by an eastward-expanding power into neutral territory bordering a declining and diminished power. I also present the facts of an objectively demonstrable outdoor kitchen cabinets removal of a lawful, legitimate government by unconstitutional means - in defiance, again objectively demonstrable, of that country s own written constitution.
This document prescribes a system of lawful impeachment for the removal of a President rather than handing over the process to the largest and most vociferous multitude outdoor kitchen cabinets (I hope this term is dispassionate enough for Mr P . See below) which can be assembled.
I also point out that this unconstitutional, outdoor kitchen cabinets and therefore lawless, action overrode the democratically-expressed wishes of Ukraine s voters in electing, in an undisputed poll, President Yanukovych. I make no claim, for I have no way of knowing, how representative outdoor kitchen cabinets Mr Yanukovych outdoor kitchen cabinets was of his divided nation *as a whole*, before, then or later.
Though I do point out (and elaborate below) outdoor kitchen cabinets that Mr Yanukovych faced a very difficult and contentious decision which would affect many people in his country in many different ways, not all of them good. It is Mr P who repeatedly asserts that the multitude spoke for the whole of Ukraine s people.
I also point out that this process undoubtedly involved severe violence against the stability and order of the state. This is once again objectively shown by the undisputed deaths of at least 20 police officers. The deaths of larger numbers of demonstrators, likewise undisputed (though we have yet to have an investigation into that) provides supporting evidence.
There are also disputes outdoor kitchen cabinets as to who started the violence. Even so, most outdoor kitchen cabinets serious persons accept that legitimate authorities are legally entitled outdoor kitchen cabinets to defend themselves against unconstitutional attempts to put pressure outdoor kitchen cabinets on the government.
This view is not confined to despotisms. Washington DC was placed where it is, and designed as it was, to ensure that the Supreme Court, Congress and President should not be besieged and put under pressure by multitudes. Likewise, the Sessional Orders which prohibit large gatherings in Parliament Square in London, during Parliamentary Sessions, are there to avoid MPs being besieged during law-making by multitudes in a manner outdoor kitchen cabinets they might interpret as threatening.
The presence of a large and hostile multitude outdoor kitchen cabinets close to the seat of legislation and government is a serious matter, as any who have experienced it will know. Some might describe it as encouraging outdoor kitchen cabinets to those who agree with the demonstrators. Some might describe it as discouraging, even intimidating, for those who do not agree with them. Again, I am being careful to take Mr 'P' (and his prefence for me (atleast) to use dispassionate terms into account) in making these points.
For, rather than properly acknowledge these points or grasp their significance, Mr P seeks to make our disagreement about Ukraine a matter of language. In evading the question of whether he would support a 'people power' or 'multitude-power' putsch in his own country, he complains about my use of the word mob to describe the multitude which appeared in the heart of the Ukrainian capital.
He then says: A mob was set loose on the democratically elected government, outdoor kitchen cabinets a mob orchestrated from the watercoolers at the EU by sinister bureaucrats. It's absurd. Wikipedia has it thus.... "The suspension of the association agreement signature initiated a wave of protests that would ultimately overthrow Viktor Yanukovych and his government." And.... "Viktor Yanukovych and his government were removed from their post by parliament after the 2014 Ukrainian revolution in February 2014."'
(I am amused by Mr P using Wikipedia, that minefield of contention, as an impartial umpire in matters of judgement. Alas for himself, he also seems to have garnered (From Wrongipedia ?) the idea that Britain outdoor kitchen cabinets was part of a Triple Alliance with Russia and France against outdoor kitchen cabinets Germany in 1914. The fact that Britain * wasn t * in any such alliance has of course always been the hinge of arguments about why we entered the war anyway. What do they teach them in these schools?).
I ll leave aside the use of caricature by Mr P to misrepresent and so ignore my points about EU aid to NGOs and Civil Society organisations in Ukraine, clearly recorded by the EU s own websites, and its general long-term efforts to make itself beloved there, by the use of other people s money . I ll only say that to attribute to me the formulation a mob orchestrated from the watercoolers at the EU by sinister bureaucrats is unserious and unresponsive. Such a formulation would indeed be absurd, had I said it. But I did not. I first quoted a pro-EU writer on the subject, Matthew Omolesky, who said Some mig
